Optimize your windows: You might not need to run your air conditioner if you pay a little more attention to your windows. Close the windows and use insulated drapes to keep the sun out during the day and open them at night when the sun is down. You can also hang a damp towel in front of the window to cool the air flowing into your home and open opposing windows or windows on the top and bottom floors for maximum air flow.
Cool your car down quickly: This Japanese trick will get your oven-like car closer to bearable temperature. Roll down one window and open and close the opposite door a few times to cool that car down.
Stay cool while you sleep: Cool your head with a special pillow like the Chillow, sleep on top of a wet sheet (aka the โEgyptian methodโ).
Know your bodyโs best cooling points: Finally, if youโre stuck in the heat and canโt find get to a cooler place, know your bodyโs best cooling points, e.g., your wrist and neck. By applying a ice cubes wrapped in a towel (or any other cold object) to these pulse points, youโll cool down more quickly and effectively.
